The Feeling and the Faith

What moves us into prayer? Desperation or inspiration? If we are not together in the heart, what's the point? When body and soul are not dancing, there is no pleasure in colourful clothing. -- Rumi Let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. -- Rev. 22:17. Moments of pain, fear, anxiety, and anguish give us the opportunity to break our hearts open. When hearts get cracked open, they get bigger. Such a crack or wound allows love to come in and to go out if we have the courage to listen and allow ourselves to walk through that moment. Our goal is to be present with a heart that is connected with something greater than ourselves.
